A Woman From Austria. Near the village ofZillingdorf, in Lower Austria, lives Maria Haas, an intelligent and industrious woman, whose story of physical suffering and final relief as related by herself, iB of interest to English women. “I was employed,” ho saye, in the work of a large farmhouse. Overwork brought on sick headache, followed by a dflflthly fainting and sickness of the stomach, until I was unable to retaia either ood or drink. I was compelled to take to ray bed for several weeks. Getting a little better from rest and sleep I sought to do some work, hut was Boon taken with a' pain in my side, which in a little while seemed to spread over my whole body, and throbbed in my every limb. This was followed by a cough and shortness of breath, until finally I eould not sew, and I took to ray bed for the second, and, aB I thought fn- the last time. My friends told me that my time had nearly come, tnd that I could not live longer than whtn the trees put on their green once more. Then I happened to get one of the Beige- pamphlets. I read it and my dear mother bought ms a bottle of Seigel’s Syrup, which I took exactly according to directions, and I had no taken the whole of it before I felt a great change for the better. My last illness began June the 3rd, 1832, and continued till August the 9th, when I began to take the Syrup. Very soon I could do a little light work. The cough left me and I was no more troubled iu breathing. Now i must tell you that the doctors in our district distributed handbills cautioning , people against the medicine, and telling them it would do them no good, and many were thereby influenced to destroy the Seigel’s paphlets ; but now wherever one is to be found it is kekt as a relic. The few preserved are borrowed to read, and 1 have ent mine for six miles around our district. People have como eighteen miles to get me to buy the medicino for them, knowing that it cured me, and to be sure to get the right kind, I know a woman who was leokiug like death, and who told them there was no help for her, that aho had consulted several doctors, but none eould help her. I told her of SeigePs Syrup, and-wrote the name down for her that she might make no mistake. She took my advice and the Syrup, and now she is in perfect health aud the people around us are amazed. The medicine has made such progress in our neighbourhood that people say they dont want the doctor any more, but they take the Syrup. Sufferers from gout who we e confined to their bed aod could hardly move a finger, have been cured by it. There is a girl in our district who caught a cold by going through some water, and was in bed five years with costiveness and rheumatic pains, and had to have an attendant to watch by her. There was not a doctor in the surround' ing districts to whom her mother had not applied to relieve her child, but every one crossed themselves and said they could not help her. Whenever the little bell rang which is rung in out place when somebody is dead, we thought surely it was for her, but SeigePs Syrup aud Pills saved her life, and now she is as healthy as anybody, goes to church, and can work even iu the fields. Everybody was astonished when they saw her out,knowng how many years she had been in bed. To-day she adds her gratitude to mine for. God’s mercies and Seigell’s Syrup. Maria Haas,
